What They Don't Want You to Know

In order to understand recent electrical failures plaguing banks and railways in Korea, you need to realize that everything is controlled by taekbae drivers made up of albinos with help from Japanese tourists.

The conspiracy first started during discovery of the New World in Barcelona. They have been responsible for many events throughout history, including the sacking of Carthage.

Today, members of the conspiracy are everywhere. They can be identified by nose-picking.

They want to stab the Bobster and imprison resisters in Pyongyang using ox carts.

In order to prepare for this, we all must decriminalise. Since the media is controlled by the Uri Party we should get our information from the Guru.

It's payday, but glitch halts Woori banking
A computer glitch at Woori Bank forced it to stop all counter services at its 741 branches around Korea.... the backup program that should have kept the bank online failed, highlighting additional problems with the bank's techniques for maintaining its computer systems.

The bank had similar service outages in June and September 2004. Last July and September, Kookmin Bank, Korea's largest, was shut down temporarily after buggy code in its computer systems awakened and snarled the systems.
